My genealogy day - 30 January 2013

What, the end of January approaches?  That means ... I need to get out my talks for 2 March and work on them, plus my OASIS talks for March Mondays.  Sometime I need to work on my New England talk and start thinking about the Ancestry Trees talk in July.

*  After reading email and blogs, I posted (Not So) Wordless Wednesday - Post 241: Randy, Stan and Dad in 1948.  It's becoming difficult to find new family pictures to post!  Wrote Watching Find My Past Television episodes and set it for later in the morning.

*  Checked for new databases, and printed off some CVGS surveys.  Computer got slow, so I rebooted it.

*  Left at 11:10 a.m. for McDonalds for lunch, then to the library for the CVGS meeting.  Ate more, talked to Butch and Jean Hibben, listened to Butch's presentation, ate some more, got a book out, and was home by 2:30 p.m.

*  Read everything, got sleepy, almost took a nap, but found some things in GenealogyBank and wrote A Cure for Genea-boredom -- GenealogyBank! instead.  Checked more folks in GenealogyBank!  Answered some email.  Suffered another BSOD...got a computer problem, I fear.

*  Went in at 5:20 p.m. to watch TV, read the paper, put out the trash, get Ruth's mail, eat dinner, wash the dishes and update my iPhone.

*  Online at 7:15 p.m. to read, add to the Best Of post, then worked in AmericanAncestors and Ancestry adding content and source citations.  Then spent some time with Find A Grave record matches on MyHeritage - down to 725 pending (out of 1341).  Added more content and sources.

*  Checked Facebook, and wrote this post.

Genealogy today was 10.5 hours.
